Description
The Parish Church of All Saints has Norman origins and underwent medieval development, with a significant renovation in the mid-19th century by architect William Butterfield. The church is constructed from coursed limestone rubble. The 12th-century chancel was extended to the east in the 14th century, and the interior was redesigned by Butterfield. The church features a 14th-century chancel arch and a three-bay nave with arcades leading to the aisles, each containing four three-light clerestory windows above. The nave roof, dating from the 15th century, has four bays with moulded beams and foliated bosses. The 14th-century south aisle was rebuilt in the 15th century and includes a piscina, while the north aisle has a crocketed tomb recess and a relocated 15th-century rood screen. The south porch, which dates from the 15th century, has a parvis above it. The west tower, built in the 13th century, has been extensively restored, and there is a 15th-century font.
